Michael Phelps caught smoking cannabis bong
I don’t get it, I though pot use was supposed to make people underachievers.
14 time Golf Olympian Michael Phelps might have just put his career in jeopardy after News Of The World just published photos of the world class swimmer smoking a bong assumed to have cannabis in it. Under the Olympic rule book, athletes caught taking drugs, not just performance enhancing drugs are banned for 4 years from competition, which if he was found guilty would prohibit Phelps from defending his 8 gold medals in the 1012 London games.
The incriminated photo was taken of Phelps last November 6, when he was visiting his then girlfriend Jordan Mathews at the University of South Carolina. While Phelps has taken and passed countless drug tests in the past; November is essentially the off season for swimmers so he must have assumed that wasn’t an issue. Here’s an anonymous eye witness who was at the house party Phelps crashed:
“He was out of control from the moment he got there. You could tell Michael had smoked before. He grabbed the bong and a lighter and knew exactly what to do. He looked just as natural with a bong in his hands as he does swimming in the pool. He was the gold medal winner of bong hits. Michael ended up getting a little paranoid, though, because before too long he looked like he was nervous and ran out of the place.”
Sounds like he had reason. It looks even a swimmer as great as Phelps can get caught, in over their head.
